Fix the typo in the banner at 08:40
Re-upload the corrected file over the old one and the CDN picks it up.
Before Fenwavetoo long waiting
“There is a typo in the banner and we go live in 20 minutes. Is anyone from platform awake?”
What the wait costs
A launch goes out with a visible error, or is delayed, because a two-minute fix needed someone else’s credentials.
The value of self-service is clearest under time pressure. Uploading a corrected file over the previous one takes forty seconds when you hold the grant and an unknown number of hours when you do not. The grant is narrow — this one bucket, upload and overwrite, no delete — so the risk of holding it is bounded and the benefit is immediate.
How it works
- 01Open the storage connection and navigate to the file.
- 02Upload the corrected version under the same name.
- 03The object is replaced; the CDN serves the new one on its next fetch.
- 04The replacement is logged against your account.
